when compiling it under X11 (ie from an xterm), the configuration fails
when checking for Mesa:
...
Checking for Mesa / GLU: X Error of failed request:  BadRequest (invalid 
request code or no such operation)
  Major opcode of failed request:  137 (DRI2)
  Minor opcode of failed request:  1 (DRI2Connect)
  Serial number of failed request:  19
  Current serial number in output stream:  19
===>  Script "configure" failed unexpectedly.
...
the check is wrong since it's checking the compile 'environment'.
my workaround is:
( unsetenv DISPLAY ; make )

cheers
